The Faculty Advisory Committee pro- vides an opportunity for the staff to participate actively in school administration. In addition, the Student Advisory Committee allows student organizations to assist in evaluating policies. Be- cause the administration holds active membership in professional organizations, it is able to keep abreast of new ideas in secondary education. The administration and Department Chairmen play a direct part in the recruiting and selection of staff in working with the Superintendent of Schools. In choosing staff members, the Department Chair- men and administration concern themselves with the quantity and the quality of each candidate’s experience. Pre-school in-service conferences are held to aid new teachers to become constructive members of the staff, and for all teachers, educa- tional workshops are planned and held on the first Monday of each month. Members of the staff are encouraged by the administration to increase their formal education and to use new techniques and teaching practices. To help improve staff-effectiveness, the administration employs classroom observations and follow-up interviews with each teacher individually.

Lehigh University, M.A. Guidance Counselor Guidance Counselors Help Every Student MANY VARIED SERVICES Guidance Services are an integral part of the total educational program. The Guidance Department shares responsibility for the total development of the student. Guidance staff members are prop- erly certified and have had extensive experience in counseling stu- dents. The individual student’s educational program is planned in conferences with the student, parent and counselor. A planned pro- gram of testing includes tests of aptitudes, achievement, interest and intelligence. These are interpreted to teachers, parents, and stu- dents for purpose of vocational and educational planning. Current files of information on educational and career opportunities are or- ganized and maintained for pupil, parent and staff use. Personnel from colleges, vocational schools and the Armed Services visit the school to provide pertinent information to interested students.
